GLOSSARY

Frequency response : Frequency response measures the output level of a device at different frequencies
Distortion : Distortion is the alteration of the original shape and /or other characteristic
S/N ratio : Signal-to-noise ratio is a measurement that describes how much noise is in the output of a device, in relation to signal level
( dBu ) : Logarithmic voltage ratio with a reference voltage of V0 = 0.7746 volt ≡ 0 dBu
